With TeslaCEOElon Musk under SEC investigation for his Twitter habit, the company hounded by short-sellers, questions about its production capability lingering, and an ongoing case with a whistleblower who said the company knowingly shipped cars with punctured battery cells, it's hard to keep abreast of all the different Tesla scandals these days. He told the newspaper that he works 120 hours a week, sometimes at the expense of not celebrating his own birthday or spending only a few hours at his brother's wedding. This week, Musk was said to have received a subpoena for more information, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Tesla fell 2.7 percent to $326.32 as of 8:29 a.m. Sources speaking with the newspaper said his actions also angered board members. A couple of years ago, Tesla approached Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg about the job, Mr Musk told the newspaper, but added that no active search is taking place now "to the best of my knowledge".

On the physical toll his job is taking, Musk said: "It's not been great, actually". I've had friends come by who are really concerned'.

Some company directors have expressed concern about Mr Musk's workload, as well as his use of the sedative Ambien, the paper said.

Experts say regulators likely are investigating if Musk was truthful in the tweet about having the financing set for the deal. There's a reason for the word 'stoned.' You just sit there like a stone on weed'.

Musk continues to have an unhealthy obsession with short sellers of Tesla's stock. The post also featured a section where he explained what he meant by 'funding secured.' This step was perhaps taken to bring some clarity to his first announcement which led to a lot of speculations and some lawsuits as well.

It is not clear if that investigation will be complemented by one into Mr Hansen's complaint, which alleges that the company - on Mr Musk's direction - surveilled its employees.

Musk said while he's committed to being Tesla's chairman and CEO, he asked the interviewers if they have anyone that could do a better job to "please let me know".

Musk said on Monday that the manager of Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund had voiced support for the company going private several times, including as recently as two weeks ago, but also said that talks continue with the fund and other investors.
